HP StorageWorks XP Command View Advanced Edition software Device Manager server installation and configuration guide (web version) (T1780-96078, March 2008)

Windows systems installation

If there are multiple password keys:

All password keys and their values in the old hdvmcli.properties file are written to the new file as

is. The following shows an example:

• The password keys and their values in the old file:

password=AAA

password=BBB

• The password keys and their values written to the new file:

password=AAA

password=BBB

If there are duplicate keys other than password:

The name and value of the most recent duplicate key in the old hdvmcli.properties file are written to

the new file as many times as there are duplicated keys. The following shows an example:

• The user keys and their values in the old file:

user=AAA

user=BBB

• The user keys and their values written to the new file:

user=BBB

NOTE: User-created files will not be saved as *.old during the upgrade.

If you want to manually make a backup before performing an upgrade installation or re-installation of

the Device Manager server, copy the following files and folders to another location:

• installation-folder-for-the-Device-Manager-server\Server\

config\*.properties

The old *.properties file is backed up in the config file as *.properties.old.

• installation-folder-for-the-Device-Manager-server\Server\logs

To back up the log files, copy this folder to another location.

• installation-folder-for-the-Device-Manager-server\SupportTools\

CollectTool\TIA.properties

The old TIA.properties file is backed up as TIA.properties.old in the same folder.

The database can automatically be backed up or exported during installation. If you want to

manually back up or export the database, perform the operations specified in subsections

3-7-1 or

3-7-3-4 . Decide whether to back up or export the database by referring to the following points.

• If version 5.1 or earlier of an XP Command View AE Suite product is already installed, back up

the database. You cannot export the database.

• If version 5.5 or later of an XP Command View AE Suite product has already been installed

and you will perform an upgrade installation, we recommend you export the database.

• If you will perform a re-installation, we recommend you back up the database.

NOTE: If CIM/WBEM functions are being used when upgrading from version 1.0, you must

release the registration of the SLP service from the Windows service before performing the

upgrade. For details about releasing an SLP service registration, see subsection

A-5-1.

If you have performed an upgrade installation without releasing the SLP service registration, it may

fail to launch the SLP service after the installation.

In such a case, do the following:

1. Disable the Service Location Protocol service from the Service window in Windows.

2. Restart Windows.
